Should I try a DIY kit first?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.
About our bath resealing in West Kilbride
A reseal is a small job that makes a big difference. Clean, white joints make a bathroom look cared for, and they protect the walls and floor. We’re frequently asked to fix old sealant that looks dirty and leaks at the edges, across basins & vanity units, wet rooms and shower trays & enclosures.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

What we do, step by step
Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. The work itself takes about two hours for a bath, and we leave the room as we found it.
- We cut out all of the old sealant.
- We remove the residue and clean the joint.
- We treat mould and dry the joint thoroughly.
- We fill the bath, or weight the tray, to open the joint.
- We apply fresh mould-resistant silicone and tool a neat bead.
Preparing for the visit
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Let us know about parking or access

Advice
Your questions about bath resealing in West Kilbride
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Most of the time. Let us know what was used before.
Can landlords book you?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
Can you quote from photos?
Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
What information do you need?
Photos of the damage, a picture of the whole bath or shower and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.
How long does silicone take to cure?
We’ll give you the curing time, typically around a day.
Is my repair covered?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Work for landlords and builders
For anyone letting property in or around West Kilbride, we will quote for several properties at once. Send photos for each one and we will price them together.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in North Ayrshire and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
What affects the price in West Kilbride
We give every job a fixed price from pictures. These are the things that affect it:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Access to the area
- What the surface is made of
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Quotes from your pictures
Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Please include:
- The material, if you know it
- A wider photo showing the whole bath or shower
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
If you are in West Kilbride and want a price, the easiest route is pictures: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
Repairs by material
Baths
We fill the bath before sealing, so the joint is at its widest.
Shower trays
Trays are sealed with weight on them, so the joint is at its widest.
When to call us in West Kilbride
No sealant lasts for ever. Each shower leaves moisture and soap behind, which mould feeds on, and the joint moves slightly every time the bath is filled.
Customers normally contact us about:
- Sealant that is split or lifting
- Old sealant that looks dirty
- Gaps by the taps
- Black spots in the silicone
What your quote should include
- How long it needs to cure
- Whether they match the colour on site
- What prep work is covered
- A fixed price, and whether VAT is included

When a repair is not the answer
We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair will not do:
- Loose tiles, which need refixing first
- Gaps too big for silicone alone
- Movement in the bath or tray
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before you book.

- Baths
- Kitchen worktops & sinks

Keeping it looking good
It’s all simple stuff:
- Reseal when black spots will not clean off
- Keep bottles off the joints
- Use the extractor fan
- Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
Leave the sealant to cure for the time we give you, generally around 24 hours.
Damp below or loose tiles need checking quickly. There may be more going on, and we will say if you need a builder or plumber.
